Crumbling mortar between patio slabs isn't just unsightly—it's an open invitation for weeds and water damage. Throughout Bexley's established gardens, proper repointing breathes new life into weathered patios while protecting the substrate beneath.
Response within 24 hours
Those Victorian terraces around Bexley Village often feature original flagstone patios that have seen better days. Joint deterioration happens gradually—frost damage, root intrusion, simple age all take their toll. Repointing addresses these issues before complete relaying becomes necessary, particularly important given the mature trees common in DA5's older properties.
Fresh pointing compound doesn't just fill gaps. Modern polymeric materials flex with temperature changes, resist weed germination, and channel rainwater away from foundations. The process involves careful removal of failed mortar, thorough cleaning of joints, then application of weather-resistant compounds matched to your patio's specific requirements. Properties near Danson Park particularly benefit from breathable pointing that handles our local clay soil's seasonal movement.
Years of repointing patios from Sidcup through to Crayford means understanding which products suit Bexley's specific conditions. Every quote includes honest assessment of whether repointing will solve the problem or if deeper issues need addressing first.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Most residential patios in DA5 fall between £25-40 per square metre, depending on joint width and existing damage. A typical 30m² patio usually ranges from £750-1200 complete.
Absolutely—from the conservation areas near Bexley Village to newer developments toward Crayford. Regular projects span Sidcup borders through central Bexleyheath too.
Standard residential patios typically require 2-3 days: preparation and old mortar removal, then pointing application and initial cure time. Larger or complex layouts might extend to 4-5 days.
Each completed patio receives decade-long coverage against joint failure, compound degradation, and workmanship defects. This comprehensive protection reflects confidence in both materials and installation quality.
Autumn repointing actually prevents winter's freeze-thaw cycles from expanding cracks further. Getting ahead of deterioration saves money—what's minor maintenance now could become major reconstruction after another harsh season.
